A saturated solution
An unstable solution containing more than the maximum amount of dissolved solute is referred to as a supersaturated solution, not a saturated solution. A saturated solution has dissolved the maximum amount of solute that can be held at a given temperature and pressure, while a supersaturated solution temporarily holds more solute than is normally possible. This condition is unstable, and the excess solute can precipitate out if disturbed or if conditions change.
A saturated solution is a solution that holds the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved in a solvent at a specific temperature and pressure.
Solution saturation compares the amount of solute in a solution to the maximum amount that can be dissolved at a given temperature. It determines if a solution is saturated (holding the maximum amount of solute), unsaturated (holding less solute than possible), or supersaturated (holding more solute than normally possible).
A saturated solution is a solution that has reached the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in it at a given temperature. As the temperature changes, the maximum solubility can also change. When a solution has a concentration higher than the maximum solubility, it is said to be supersaturated.
A solution that contains the maximum amount of solute at a given temperature is called a saturated solution. This means that the solution is holding as much solute as it can at that specific temperature, with no additional solute able to dissolve.
An unsaturated solution is one in which the solvent has not dissolved the maximum amount of solute possible at a given temperature and pressure. This typically means there is room for more solute to dissolve in the solution.
The maximum concentration of a solution is when the maximum amount of solute is dissolved in a solvent at a given temperature. This concentration is often referred to as the saturation point of the solution, beyond which no more solute can be dissolved.
Such a solution would be termed "dilute" as opposed to a "concentrated" or "saturated" solution containing either a great amount of solute, or the entire amount of solute possible in a particular solvent.
When a solution has accepted as much solute as is possible at a given temperature, the solution is said to be saturated. Under certain conditions, saturated solutions can be concentrated to give supersaturated solutions. Supersaturated solutions are those which possess more of a solute than normally dissolves in a solvent at a given temperature.
solution
A solution that contains the maximum amount of solute is NOT an unsaturated solution.It is called to be saturated instead.
An unsaturated solution is one that contains less solute than the maximum amount it can dissolve at a given temperature. This type of solution has the capacity to dissolve more solute.
